Remove Google Chrome from Your PC - Complete Uninstall Solutions

admin21-01-2019154

All the time I see people are complaining about program’s removal online, seeking answers desperately. Like “I have tried everything I know to remove Google Chrome, and it’s still there like all I’ve done is totally a waste of time. Can someone tell me how to effectively uninstall this program? By any means necessary!”

So, what is the reason that you failed to remove Google Chrome? I can’t be sure without witnessing the whole process. Perhaps you didn’t shut down Google Chrome before going through the removal, or the program itself went wrong. And most of the users forgot to delete the related registry keys after they’ve performed the previous steps.

You don’t want to give up so soon, so you are reading this. Uninstalling the programs you don’t need anymore and those you will never use is a good way to maintain the performance, keeping system crises at bay. If you are tired of being a whiner and want to make every second count, let’s now cut to the chase.

How to Manually Remove Google Chrome on Your Own

1. First of all, log in your system with an account that has administrative rights, so that you will be able to go through all the steps, which are considered to be the actions of making changes in Windows. Otherwise you may need to provide the password when trying to remove Google Chrome.

But if you are using the same account all the time, don’t bother to understand what I just said, and go to the next.

2. Shut down Google Chrome, end all the related processes via Task Manager.

Press and hold Ctrl + Alt + Del on your keyboard to open Task Manager > Make sure the program isn’t running by checking the Applications tab, then go to the Processes tab, and end the related ones. They probably have similar names.

3. Remove Google Chrome through Control Panel.

Windows 7: Click on Start button in the bottom left corner (or simply hit the Windows key on your keyboard), move your mouse pointer to the Control Panel and then click on it. > Select Uninstall a program under the Programs section. (If you’re a user of Windows XP, click on Add or Remove Programs.)

Windows 8: Right-click on Start button in the lower-left corner, and click on Control Panel > Select Uninstall a program under the Programs section.

Windows 10: Open the Start menu > Click Settings > Click System on the Settings menu > Select Apps & features from the left pane, then a list of all installed apps appears in the right pane.

Select Google Chrome > Click the Uninstall button that appears (If it is grayed out, this is a system app you cannot remove) > Click the Uninstall pop-up button to confirm. Its default uninstaller will be activated with a pop-up window, on which please choose the last option Uninstall, and hit the Continue/Yes button when being told “You are about to remove Google Chrome.” > Wait for the installation wizard to process your request and quietly perform the removing process.

At last it may tell you “The product was successfully uninstalled, blah blah blah…”. Just click on Restart computer (or Restart later) button if there is the button.

If you’ve never done this before, not even for once, I suggest backing up your Registry before continuing. More troubles would be brought if anything is deleted by mistake. And it’s way too complicated to explain how to restore the data. So, just be careful. You can read How to Backup Windows Registry by scrolling down the page.

Windows 8 Just like how you opened Control Panel > Hover your mouse pointer to the bottom right corner until you see the charms bar pops up from the right side, type “regedit” in the search box, and hit the Enter key on your keyboard.

Windows 10 Executing “regedit” from any command-line area (just like how you do it on Windows 8).

Then the Registry Editor will be presented with a new window > From the left pane in Registry Editor, drill down until you locate the registry key named Google Chrome > Once found, right-click or tab-and-hold it and select Delete > You’ll be asked to confirm the key or value deletion request, tap or click Yes to completely remove Google Chrome.

5. Restart your computer.

The kind of that benefits from a value or key removal is usually the kind of thing that requires a PC restart to take effect.

By now You have come a long way to remove Google Chrome. Personally they are pretty much the same thing in different versions of Windows. So when I switch between them, I won’t be confused. Do you? Well, there is actually another way that applies to all the popular Windows operating systems. Find out the way under the next subtitle.
